Hi everyone I just had the gastric bypass surgery on 12/19 and I'm still on the liquid diet and I was wondering if there's anything other than the usual that I can drink. I'm tired of the Water, crystal light, broth, Jello, and ice pops, Vitamin water, diet Snapple. Do anyone have any other suggestions please

Be willing to experiment. After surgery, my taste buds changed dramatically. Even Water changed. In the hospital it tasted excessively chlorinated and I could not drink it. So I experimented. sugar free popsicles became my best friend. Some individuals find hot or cold can help with fluids. For me, I found that I could tolerate flavored water. So I began using Crystal Light. I also found a new drink Bai which I liked cold. In the winter, I found that I tolerate Hot drinks such as piping hot cocoa. But you have to use the "No Sugar Added" variety. Also fine English teas were very good.

The Fluid requirement is met by a combination. It is not only the water that you drink each day. But also the water you drink when you take your Vitamins and medicine. It is the milk you drink. It is the fluids content of the Protein shakes. It is the water component of the Soups you take. It is met by flavored water such as Crystal Light. It is met by sugar free popsicles. It is met by tea and decaf coffee. It is a combination of all the fluids that you consume during the day.

Thanks James I willing to experiment I just wasn't sure what I should or could have. The doctor gave me a list of things and I have tried them all for the most part except for miso Soup. Not sure where I can find that at. The sugar free popsicles have definitely became my best friend. Crystal light is ok. Diet Snapple, Powerade zero is way too sweet, as well as some flavored waters. I'm still drinking the Protein shake and now it's so nasty I'm starting to get nauseous wen I drink it. Jello is another best friend. I don't drink coffee and I'm goin to go get some tea and see how that works.

Hhhmmmm....decaf herbal teas? I love some of the flavors there are and would give some variety? And you could control the sweetness level. Just remember....this too shall pass!

I'm completely addicted to Stash Tea Raspberry Hibiscus.

It's so fruity with a sour zing! I drink a gallon every day.
